One more reason to vote Green

For me, the highlight of Fahrenheit 911 occurs early in the film, when the formidable Maxine Waters says she doesn't care if there is a Senator's signature on the petition to investigate voter fraud in Florida in 2000.

Of course, the lack of a single Senator's signature prevented the Congressional investigation from taking place, and now we are repeating the whole cowardly mess with Ohio. Both Waters and Congressman John Conyers are ready to go, but once again, no Senator has stepped forward to sign the petition.

There is no race among Kennedy, Clinton, Kerry, Boxer, Murray, and other liberals and sort-of liberals to sign the petition. We haven't heard a peep out of any of them, and we probably won't.

You can fax, phone, and email your Senator, but don't expect much.
